What do you put in your mashed potatoes?

__________________

Usually I just add a little milk, butter and salt & pepper. But on special occasions I top my mashed potatoes with crumbled bacon, green onion and cheddar cheese, yumm!

It seems like I am always doing something a little different to my mashed taters, but the same items are milk and butter. The different items I use are: sour cream, chives, garlic, shredded cheese and sometimes I leave the skins on the taters.

I just did this last night with my new potatoes, I cooked them in chicken broth (i left the skins on )and drain them. I then added onion, sour cream and a little cream cheese with chives. Boy was that good!

Now tonight I will add egg and flour and make potatoes cake.

Some sour cream, butter, milk and adobo seasoning. Sometimes I'll add chopped garlic in with the potatoes while they cook.

a dry pak of hidden valley ranch, loads of butter, milk and sometimes shredded cheese and bacon pieces.

Try adding cauliflower puree to lighten them up.

I use chicken broth instead of milk and butter (tasty + healthy), loads of minced garlic, salt, white pepper and sometimes fresh chives from the garden

I cook my potatoes with chopped onion and garlic. Then after they are drained I add in cream (or sour cream if I have any), butter, salt and pepper.

If I have chives I'll add them in when I'm mashing them, or if I have thyme I add it to the water to cook with the potatoes.
